This video was recorded at MIT Industrial Liaison Program. In this wide-ranging discussion, panelists seized on redesigning science education as a way of ensuring the success of systems biology. The first challenge lies in improving instruction in the earliest years. David Botstein said, "K-12 education has never been that great…(kids) don't need to know everything in excruciating detail….Anything they find out by themselves is worth 10 or 20 of anything you tell them to do." Mark Kirschner remarked, "What's left out is appropriate kinds of inquiry, and at the appropriate age." Leroy Hood spoke with master teachers and "understood that the worst way to teach was lecture." Another obstacle lies with the culture of higher education, where scientists are rewarded for focusing on a single specialty and for research, not teaching. George Poste pointed to "rampant egotism that's destructive," preventing collaboration. Peter Sorger commented, "Autonomy is given to faculty members in classroom. We need expectations. Students will gravitate to those courses that are taught well." A major hurdle for budding systems biologists involves embracing a larger biology. Matt Scott spoke of building "excitement about things beautiful and mysterious." Other panelists expressed hope that the diversity of living things would generate a passion not only to understand the fundamental interdependence among all living things but to preserve species as well.

Poster Session from "Weaving Patterns of Practice," 2008 POD Network/NCSPOD Conference.Research has shown the importance, particularly for women, of receiving mentoring in the academic profession (Castor, Caldwell, &Salazar, 2005). Those women who do remain in the academy through the tenure and promotion process may have difficulty finding mentors oriole models in academic leadership positions (Kaplan, 1995; Cawyer, Simonds, & Davis, 2002). With the dwindling number of women remaining in the profession, and fewer achieving high level positions of leadership, this lack of women leaders in academia influences the policies, procedures, and expectations set by institutions (Cullen &Luna, 1993). This poster session addresses ways to support women faculty in defining and pursuing leadership excellence.

This video was recorded at OCWC Global Conference, Ljubljana 2014. The OCW Consortium global conference is the annual opportunity for researchers, practitioners, policy makers and educators to deeply explore open education and its impact on global education. Conference participants will hear from global thought leaders in open education and have the opportunity to share ideas, practices and discuss issues important to the future of education worldwide. Sessions cover new developments in open education, research results, innovative technology, policy implementation, best practices and practical solutions to challenges facing education around the world. The theme for this year's conference is "Open Education for a Multicultural World״, and features four tracks: Research and Technology – new technologies allowing scaling and sharing of Open Educational Resources in a faster or more economical way, to index the multimodal and multilingual material, or to navigate and remix available material. Open Educational Policies - policy issues and their impact on open educational practice, including licensing issues, alternative business models, cooperative efforts and governmental funding. Pedagogical Impact – novel uses of Open Educational Resources and their impact on education, analysis of the impact of Open Educational Resources on the learning process itself, as well as deployment of OERs in MOOCs, flipped classrooms, hybrid educational approaches and online education. Finally, a project dissemination track will allow actors (teams, projects, companies) currently involved in open education projects in Europe to present the results of their work. For more informations please visit the OCWC global conference 2014 website.
